Application Examples

The use of FCS Express for analysis of Fucci Cell Cycle data acquired on the HCS Studio 2.0 platform

By using the Thermo Scientific™ ArrayScan™ XTI High Content Analysis (HCA) Reader and Premo FUCCI cell cycle sensor, compounds affecting the cell cycle can be readily analyzed and reported with FCS Express.See for yourself by downloading the white paper or by using the free FCS Express Reader: Fucci Analysis (345 mB).

Histology Tumor Tissue Analysis

The Compartmental Analysis BioApplication in HCS Studio 2.0 was used to discern between tumor and normal tissue. FCS Express was used to further assess and visualize the data sets. See for yourself by downloading the PowerPoint Export or by using the free FCS Express Reader: Tumor Tissue Analysis.
